DNS-over-VPN: Apple iPhone

This article will explain how to setup our DNS-over-VPN feature on an Apple iPhone.

DNS-over-VPN using PPTP is not supported on the latest iOS 10 due to the removal of the PPTP protocol by Apple. We are testing the L2TP protocol on our Melbourne DNS server (168.1.79.229). You will need to use the Shared Secret 1234567890 if you want to try this out.

Before you begin, use the web browser on your iPhone to login to your Getflix account and ensure your IP address is registered (and that the IP address status check passes). You will only be able to connect to our VPN servers if your IP address is registered.

Note: If you are using a 3G/4G connection to access Getflix, your IP address may change frequently. You will need to access the Getflix website from your iPhone each time before connecting to the VPN.

Step 1

Tap on the Settings icon, go to the General section, then tap on the VPN item.

Step 2

Tap on the Add VPN Configuration link.

Step 3

Click on the PPTP tab at the top of the screen.

Using a web browser, navigate to the "Setup" section on the Getflix website. Locate your closest "VPN Enabled" DNS server.
